ECTACO is happy to present you its second line of electronic eBook readers: ECTACO jetBook LITE – the most affordable eBook Reader on the market with better performance than in most of its competitors.

Bidirectional dictionaries for certain European languages (incl. German and Spanish) are available

Multilingual interface options that include German and Spanish

Pre-loaded CIA World Factbook

Bookmarks and auto page turn functionality

Adjustable font type and size

Screen rotation support for both portrait & landscape modes

SD card slot
